The DHHS Auction is the main way that parents raise funds for our school's academic and athletic needs. The DHHS PTO and the Druid Hills Athletic Association split the proceeds of the Auction. Both organizations rely on Auction funds to meet such needs as video equipment for the RedDevilTV program, extra outdoor dining tables, funding Debate Club fees, supplementing PPS for all classrooms and buses, uniforms for teams, coaching salaries and stipends, and MUCH more!   The more funds we raise, the more we can do for our students!   It's also a great party and everyone in the DHHS community is invited!
